Gearing up to launching and building YourTale.art in public
Hi! I am currently building my startup as quickly as I can and am trying to buildinpublic, but currently not fully in the public mode. I have started showing my site to friends and family to gather feedback but have had minimal engagement online so far.
If anyone is interrested in writing your own tales, and actually get them as fully illustrated physical books, I would love to get some pre-launch feedback. My current plan is to flesh out the landing page with more preview tales, and filming a demo video, then launching here on ProductHunt, LinkedIn and my own social media very soon. What other forums should I launch via? Any and all tips for a first time builder and launcher would be super appreciated!
Really looking forward to starting this journey! Have quit my job and will be fully working on this in 2-months time so its a super scary and exciting time( currently also working full-time on this in my head and brain, but only code on the evenings and weekends;)

Hey and welcome :) I'm considering buildinpublic as well although I'm not sure what to share. If your product is a physical book maybe tik-tok would be great idea.
The launch is important, but don't forget that promotion before the launch is just as crucial! Also, if you spread out across too many platforms, it can reduce focus, so I recommend focusing on PH and LinkedIn first. Afterward, you can expand to Slack or Discord.
